(# 3) ROCKET LEGS - Ran much better than the races look on paper in his last pair at Belmont. Was positioned towards the inside in the flat mile race over Belmont's turf, and that is a tough place to be with horses to your outside the whole race. Working very well for this race, and can see him getting the lead into the first turn, and that would make him a serious wire-to-wire threat.

(# 8) Virginia Minstrel - Unless the Frankel import(#7) is a real runner, this colt would appear to be the strongest stretch threat in this maiden event. Tagg colt has put together a pair of excellent second place finishes at Belmont, and the two-turn nature of this race fits his style.

(# 5) Runaway Banjo - Donk barn just completed a good Belmont meeting. This colt by Cherokee Run tries grass for the first time. His two dirt efforts were encouraging, and I think he'll run his best race yet today.

(# 6) Montauk - Stretches back out off a troubled second place finish in a 7F race at Belmont. Been well-backed at the windows right along, and this marks his first race around two-turns.
